Seems pretty fair I guess. I won't be going in it anyway, so that's one less person everyone has to worry about. Good luck guys

Geesh imagine if SSC did a lottery system, what an uproar it would be and mind you quite ridiculous! Why don't you guys the a streamline like SSC does? it's first come first basis.

I remember when the first Playstation 2 sold out, the Sony store I was at did a lottery system of 5 console for 500 people on line. Some even camped out for days. Did the person in front of the line get it? Hell no. Thats's fari right GG?

GG, you need to figure out a better system because this practice should not be done!

But to be fair VS, as he mentioned GG has a global customer base. So somewhere in the world, someone will be getting the short end of the deal. E.g. if they opened the ordering at 7:00 pm Aussie time (when most people here are home from work) it might be in the early hours of the morning for many in the US or elsewhere who are otherwise fast asleep.

Yah so be it. Do you think SSC PPO is practical on Fridays at 10am? I don't think so but it works.

You don't want to know the answer.

Didn't you have one(U.S. version) in hand already?

Yes... but I wanted 2 so I can have one in my office. It was cancelled through one of the etailers because GG did not allocate any to them? Also with the raise ES of Amber, how can Movereplicadirect.com not getting any allocations?

No offense VS but you are actually complaining because you can't get a second BD? How do you think that makes all the people feel who couldn't even get one?
